Chapter 688 So What About Your Own Strength?
"If there is no dragon, Liverpool may not be able to escape from Spain!"
"We could have had a win at home!"
"But the other side has a dragon!"
"Liverpool is not a real whole, it is a team of Long Shute alone!"
Spanish local media made such comments after the game.
Although there was some sour taste, even Long Shute himself could not deny it.
Of Liverpool's five goals, he scored four of them, and the other one also came from his strong shot being saved. Sturridge just missed it in front of the goal...
Without the outstanding performance of the captain of the Red Army, Rogers and his disciples could only get a draw at most!
-
With two big fours to save the team in the league and the Europa League in a row, Long Shute has won a lot of praise, and unsurprisingly, he has also received a lot of negative voices.
"Modern football has developed to such an extent, I can't imagine that there is still a team that relies on a player so much!"
"Barcelona has MSN, Real Madrid also has the BBC, Bayern has Lewandowski, Ribery and Robben and many other superstars, but Liverpool has only one Long Special!"
"The existence of Long Shute may not be a good thing for Liverpool. He can bring the team one or two championship trophies, but he has undoubtedly destroyed the foundation of Liverpool!"
"Look at AC Milan. They were brilliant in the 13-14 season, but when Long Shute suffered a serious injury, Milan in the 14-15 season could only lose all four! If a team wants to develop healthily, it must not All hope rests on one player!"
"If you want to truly achieve a period of dynasty, you still have to learn from our La Masia, this is the strongest kingly way!"
-
There seems to be nothing wrong with what they said, because the next game quickly proved that this Liverpool team really cannot leave Long Shute.
On the third day back to the British Isles, on May 5, Liverpool went to Wales non-stop, and the 1th round of the league officially started.
The opponents they challenged were Swan Sea and Swansea, which were defeated by Leicester City 4-0 in the last round.
This is the team where Rogers' coaching career officially started, and it is also where he received attention and praise-Swansea, which Luo Tiancai coached back then, was once known as the "Premier League Barcelona" because of its advocating delicate technical play.
Rogers still has some feelings for this city and this team, so he put Long Shute on the bench in a "fake public interest" manner.
His reason is not new. After all, the two games are away games, only two days apart, and most of the time is still on the road during the period. As the head coach, he does not want to see the core of the team being too tired.
What's more, Liverpool leads Leicester City by 6 points. With only 3 rounds left in the league (Liverpool has a make-up match), the 6-point advantage is almost equivalent to booking the league championship!
-
But the facts have proved that if you treat your old club too softly, you will definitely get retribution.
When the halftime whistle sounded, Rogers had already pulled out more than a dozen of his eyebrows...
The score is 3-1, with the home team at the front and the visiting team at the back.
That's right, the lineup he sent was indeed all substitutes, and there were even two youth training players in 97, but...he didn't think he would lose so badly in front of his old club!
Swansea's striker Ayew scored twice, and midfielder Cork added the icing on the cake. Although Liverpool pulled one back from Origi, the full-back Brad Smith, who had just turned 22, scored the second in 41 minutes With a yellow card, the long-loan Australian had to end his hard-earned first-team minutes...
Long Shute, who was sitting on the bench, looked at this teammate and couldn't help shaking his head.
He is 22 years old, but he doesn't see much potential, and he can't even play in the third level of League One. In this summer, he can be considered to be purged, right?
Like Smith, the Spanish teenager Pedro Chirivela, who is under 19 years old, was included in the purge list by Long Shute. His skills are good, but his figure is thinner than Joe Allen. In front of the confrontational Swansea, it is also difficult to maintain possession...
Not every Spanish player can gain a foothold in England like Mata. More players who come to the Premier League from Europe will feel a little uncomfortable, let alone just a young boy.
And the local defender Branagan (not Flanagan) born in 96 and the local striker Ojo born in 97 seem to be unable to reach the strength to enter Liverpool's first team-but after all, they are local youth training. Players can also come in handy to make up the number of people, so they will not be directly purged for the time being. After they are 22 years old, if they still have no potential, 90% of them will be directly terminated.
Sometimes, Long Shute is really envious of Manchester United. Although in the context of modern football, the blowout glory of Class 92 is unlikely to continue, their youth training echelon can still deliver some high-quality players. young players.
For example, "Belgian Beckham" Januzaj, British star Lingard, Van Gaal's magic weapon Rashford, and even the current Juventus midfielder Pogba...
Of course, this is also related to Manchester United's strategy of recruiting semi-finished monsters, but Liverpool has definitely done the same thing, but there are not enough monsters that can make people shine. The most admirable and most impressive in recent years It's a pity that the youth player is Sterling who switched to Manchester City.
Seeing that a bunch of teenagers were unreliable, Rogers decisively replaced the three main players of Longshute, Benteke, and Lovren after the intermission, and used them to prop up the team's central axis.
Of course, the main force's appearance is very effective. Even if Liverpool has one less player to fight, Long Shute still led his teammates to complete the overtake within 20 minutes.
Long Shute took the lead with a hat-trick and an assist, Benteke and Bader contributed respectively. When the game was over, the Swansea fans had to congratulate the former head coach for taking three points at the Liberty Stadium.
The 7-3 score allowed Rodgers to put his hanging heart back into his stomach, and the players could also spend the post-match time relaxed and happy on the bus back to Liverpool.
Players can listen to music, play games, and even take a nap with their heads covered, but Rodgers can't be so relaxed.
The head coach couldn't wait to turn on the car TV and watched the half-way Leicester City game by himself.
Fox City's opponent this round... is Manchester United.
Manchester United and city rivals Manchester City are ranked fifth and sixth in the standings, only 4 points away from No.2 Arsenal. They still retain the hope of entering the top four and getting tickets to the Champions League next season.
But Arsenal did not lose the chain. Wenger directed his disciples to beat Norwich City 1-0, taking the initiative to guarantee the fourth in his own hands.
Manchester City was even more miserable. They lost 2-4 to Southampton in the away game and almost withdrew from the ranks of the fourth.
The tense atmosphere may be contagious, and Manchester United under the command of Giggs failed to beat their opponents. They lost 1-2 to Leicester City at Old Trafford!
"Fu*K..."
Rogers couldn't help yelling:
"In order to slow down our chances of winning the championship, even if there is only a 1% possibility...are they not willing to let it go?!"
The Liverpool players who learned the result of the game from the Internet almost had the same attitude as the head coach.
They agreed that Manchester United let go of Leicester City!
Just to make Liverpool feel the pressure, it is best to capsize all the last three games!
But maybe only Ryan Giggs knows that he doesn't want to release water at all!
But... His Manchester United just can't beat Ranieri's Leicester City!
